C++ sleep for seconds

#include <iostream>
#include <unistd.h>     //required for usleep()
using namespace std;
int main(){
    //usleep will pause the program in micro-seconds (1000000 micro-seconds is 1 second)
    const int microToSeconds = 1000000;   
    const double delay1 = 2 * microToSeconds;     //2 seconds
    const double delay2 = 4.5 * microToSeconds;     //4.5 seconds
    
    cout<<"Delay 1 in progress... ("<<delay1/microToSeconds<<"s)"<<endl;
    usleep(delay1);        
    cout<<"  => Delay 1 is over"<<endl<<endl;
    
    cout<<"Delay 2 in progress... ("<<delay2/microToSeconds<<"s)"<<endl;
    usleep(delay2);
    cout<<"  => Delay 2 is over"<<endl<<endl;

    return 0;
}

how to use sleep function in c++ windows

// to use sleep function on windows with c++
#include <Windows.h>
Sleep(3000) // based on milliseconds

c++ sleep

#include <unistd.h>
// ...
sleep(1); // 1s

c++ sleep

#include <chrono>
#include <thread>

//sleeping for 3 milliseconds
sleep(3000)

sleep c++

#include <unistd.h>
unsigned int sleep(unsigned int seconds);

c++ sleep

std::this_thread::sleep_for(std::chrono::milliseconds(x));

sleep in c++

#if __WIN32
#include <Windows.h>
#else
#include <unistd.h>
#endif

ex: c++ sleep function

#include <iostream> 
#include <windows.h> // WinApi header 

using namespace std;

int main() 
{ 
    Beep(523,500); // 523 hertz (C5) for 500 milliseconds     
    cin.get(); // wait 
    return 0; 
}
